Sorry if this sounds like a noob question, will IEM (with mic) that are "designed for use with iDevice" works with other device? Will they suffer some audio quality loss compared to normal version? The IEM I'm looking at is the Sony XBA-1iP.

BTW, Fiio Walkman LOD cable selling at 16 USD, worth the price? No other place are selling it , the amp I got is Fiio E6 while my IEM is V-Sonic GR04.
